Why it matters: OTE tells you what you could earn. Attainment tells you how realistic it is.
Ask: “What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?”

The job
- What you'd do
- Sell Rubrik's Microsoft 365 data protection through big consulting and IT firms like Accenture and Deloitte, across the Americas. You'll find deals among those firms' existing clients and take them from first call to signed contract.
- What you'd sell
Keeps company data safe and recoverable after cyberattacks
When a hacker locks up a company's email and files, the company usually has to rebuild from whatever old copies it can find. The problem is, those copies may be out of date, missing pieces, or caught in the same attack, so getting back to work can drag on. Rubrik keeps secured copies of company data across clouds and servers, and helps the business recover it after an attack.

The Braun Read
Worth a lookSolid on the basics. Use the first call to fill in the gaps.
- Pay
- Base is listed but not OTE. Ask what the variable is and how many people hit it.
- Transparency
- Shares 1 of 5. Mentions territory. Ask about quota, attainment, deal size and sales cycle.
- Time on market
- Brand new.
- Company hiring
- Ramping up: posted 30 sales roles in the last 30 days. That many open roles can also mean churn. Ask how many reps are still there from last year.
Based only on what the posting says. Lights are a starting point for your first call, not a final judgment.
Questions to ask on the first call
Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.
- 1.
What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?
OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.
- 2.
What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?
Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.
- 3.
Has the comp plan changed in the last 12 to 18 months? What changed?
A plan that changes every year means the goalposts keep moving.
- 4.
Who sits with reps and reviews calls each week?
Coaching is often what's behind a good or bad attainment number.

Required Qualifications:
